The main objective of this study is to analyze the training process of undergraduate students of History in a university center of Rio Grande do Sul, particularly with respect to how supervised internship is understood and performed. We aim to seek, through the internship reports, the subjects speeches among every kind of circumstance the students are submitted to along this process. The methodology used was qualitative and quantitative in nature and, at first, it was identified and analyzed everything the students believe in and carry with them as truths about the profession, their desires and goals as professionals in the education field and, more specifically, as future History teachers. After that, it was carried out the identification and analysis of speeches which contrast the ideal of the career with the reality experienced in elementary schools. Finally, we highlight the speeches that seek to resize the educational practice after having performed the internship, realigning the desire to become teachers in face of the adversities found along the training process. We believe that the Supervised Internships are the initial teaching experience by excellence. They are also places of paradoxes, where joys and sorrows, perseverance and difficulties are found in different situations of the school environment, and can be interpreted considering the different paths taken along the training years. If there are pre-conditions, yet a whole series of issues relating to the universe prior to the initial training and to the university environment is part of the understanding about education and about graduating as History teachers. Conjuncture issues, as well as specific aspects related to space/time experienced by interns, are significant to the understanding of what they tell about their experiences in schools. In this sense, we recognize that it will not be possible to move forward and overcome the symptoms of malaise in teaching until we have a resizing of the initial training of future education professionals. To fully comply with their formative function, higher education institutions must be able to simultaneously meet the needs of students regarding their specific area of expertise, combining it with a greater emphasis on teaching, through educational programs that train teachers in the fullness. The revaluation of the teaching profession must be initiated in Higher Education Institutions. It is there where future teachers will be trained. It is there where the profound gaps between theory and practice are identified. Far from being seen as a smooth process without trauma, initiation into teaching is presented by the interns as a place of doubts and difficulties. However, they reaffirm the belief in education as the primary means of personal growth and transformation of society. Unaware of instruments capable of reorganizing and giving new meanings to the understanding of what undergraduate students themselves identify as what is "real" in their profession, they come back to the founding speech of a redemptive education. In this resuming or reaffirmation process of ideals and beliefs, the students seek and are able to join essential forces to rethink about themselves and give meaning to the work they develop, building a positive self-image among the antinomies of the training process.
